Warhammer Throne

Sea Dragon's Breath Pub, late at night, in the king's room.

…………The above is a little…………

The room was full of silence, the original storm has ended, the curtains were tightened, the carpet imported from Arabi was spread on the ground, and the room was burning with the finest ambergris.

Ryan was wearing a bathrobe, leaning on her head, pillowing herself with a soft pillow, Olica lay down in Ryan’s arms and closed her eyes, while Veronica’s face was moisturized and red. She finished washing. After the bath, I changed into a white bathrobe. He stood up the pillow like Ryan, and then leaned on the pillow, leaning against Ryan’s shoulder feeling the beauty: "Dear?"

"Huh?" Ryan tightened Olika in his arms: "What's the matter?"

"Something..." Rarely, Veronica hesitated a little.

"What's the matter?" Ryan touched his chin. He has a habit of spending a little time afterwards thinking and reviewing his recent series of guidelines and policy issues, and by the way, interpersonal relations, that is, at this time, His thinking is the most active, no way, man.

"...It's nothing, I just think... Since the completion of the Tower of Dawn Wizard, from the council witches to my apprentices, it seems that I have taken a shortcut." Veronica sighed softly, and she stretched out A tender foot wrapped in colored silk stockings kicked the quilt: "Damn, I think it was someone deliberately targeting me. Couldn't they see my desolation and put all the chips in one breath? Isn't this me? Do you deserve it?"

"This is not very normal, people are always forgetful." Ryan stretched out a hand and put his arm around Veronica's shoulder, and said softly: "People always hope to pick what is available, and chasing success is also human nature. Nothing, you are right. This is what you deserve. As for those who don't have enough resources, naturally there are ways to grow without resources. Originally there are so many resources, so naturally the first comer will get it."

Veronica closed her mouth and nodded a little bit unwillingly. Just as Ryan said, it takes a lot of resources to cultivate a wizard with all your strength, so why is the position of the chief wizard of the imperial royal family being contested by a large number of wizards, and why the whole witch The regiment is full of witches who are full of thoughts about Ryan, which is the reason.

However, there are no resources and there are no resources to survive. It is not that wizards cannot practice without money and resources. Originally, there are so many resources. As the King of Bretania, Ryan is currently the king of Breton, and his court has also raised several. A sanctuary spellcaster.

As for why wizards don’t make money on their own but depend on nobles... This question is ridiculous. It is similar to asking why archers are not good at melee combat and why dwarves are not good at speed. Wizards have devoted almost all of their energy to fighting the arcane. In the pursuit and research of Tao, where do they have so much energy to find ways to manage their territory and obtain wealth? Veronica knew that many witches of Garland had to get rid of penniless and borrowed money before they started selling potions, making scrolls, and making quests to make money.

Seeing Ryan did not continue to say, Veronica was a little unwilling to say, she said tentatively, "You said, dear, could this be the work of the mother and daughter, such as deliberately spreading rumors and spilling dirt on me? water?"

"You mean Aurora? Is there any question about this?" Ryan gave Veronica a blank glance: "You are not the same? Secretly spread that Aurora lost power and leaned against Teresa. The relationship with me came to Bretania shamelessly and forcibly posted it?"

"Hehehe~ you know all of them?" Veronica's cautious thoughts were seen through.

"How could I not understand my chief courtier?" Ryan murmured, and he suddenly smiled: "Right? Olica?"

"All those who found out the rumors were demoted to slaves. As for Ms. Veronica and Ms. Aurora who spread the rumors, then clear the customs to my pale courtyard!" Olica lifted her head from Ryan's arms and smirked. Said: "Master, leave it to me, I'm good at this, and I promise that they won't have any ability to resist in the future."

"That won't work, I like the original Veronica, not the kind of Veronica that has lost herself." Ryan immediately refused, and Veronica said aggressively, "Ms. Olica, There is no deep hatred between us? Why do you always aim at me?"

"The master's idea is the benchmark for everything, and nothing else is important." Olica smiled sadly: "Don't fall into my hands, Ms. Veronica."

The three people made a few jokes, and the incident was revealed. In fact, Ryan never hoped that Teresa Aurora and Veronica could get along in harmony. In fact, the two sides had a good fight. , It is beneficial for Ryan to control the situation and allocate resources. For example, this time Veronica and her wizard group followed in this big expedition, so in the future, Ryan's resources will definitely be tilted towards Veronica.

"By the way, I'm going to the Haimenguan Engineers Association tomorrow. Who of you wants to go?" Ryan asked casually, "If you don't want to go, you can also move freely."

"Master, what is going to the Haimenguan Engineers Association?" Olica wrapped her arms around Ryan's neck and buried her small head in Ryan's mouth. Her long black hair almost covered Ryan's body: "Those short duo would be willing to follow Do you share technology? You really think too much, master, let me tell you, even if the Bellegar-Hammer you have high hopes for, if it weren’t really so desperate, he wouldn’t ask you for help, the dwarf will always This is so, conservative, stubborn, rigid, and extremely focused on tradition."

"It sounds like you know dwarves well." Ryan smiled, he hugged Orika, and said softly: "I plan to order an ironclad ship at Haimen Pass, Orika, Veronica, you see today Is the iron armored ship at Haimen Pass? I also want one. Pordro’s Poseidon fleet is indeed powerful, but we can’t always rely on other people’s fleets, right? We also have a bit of capital."

Before Veronica spoke, Olica said disdainfully: "Iron-clad ship? That kind of iron shell is just an empty shelf. How can it be compared with our Duruzzi's black ark. I have never seen our Duruzzi's black. Ark, master, you never know what a real navy is."

"I haven't seen the Queen of Glory battleship, Olica, you never know what a real navy is." Ryan vomited: "The Black Ark may be really powerful, but we can't get it!"

"It's not difficult to get the Black Ark, as long as you try to get one." Olica shook her head, and the dark elf thought for a while: "But this does have to match the entire Duruzzi pirate army on the Black Ark. Let's start the war. Now that you have already thought about it, Master, I have no other opinion, but I will not go. Truce is very unpopular with the dwarves, especially for those serious and old-fashioned engineers."

"Then I won't go either, dear." Veronica also shook her head.

"Okay, then I'll go to Karad and Federmond." Ryan could only shake his head.

…………I am the number one dividing line in the world of Black Ark…………

Early the next morning, Ryan set off with Karad and Federmond, ready to go to the Haimenguan Dwarf Engineers Association.

Leading him through the forging factory powered by waterwheels. These waterwheels have been slowly turning for thousands of years without stopping. The flames in the furnace are also burning. The strength of the Association of Engineers in Haimenguan is second only to The Society of Engineers of the Eternal Peak and the Riptide Pass Dwarf is packed with benches and all kinds of machines, from the most sophisticated clock-making machines to the cranes used to assemble the best cannons. Even at this time, the workshop is still there. The fire was in the sky, the clinking of hammers, fierce arguments, and the buzzing of grinding stones and cars one after another.

"The engineers are in a meeting." The hammer warrior who led the way for Lane and the others said to the knight king: "Please come back this afternoon."

Ryan and the others are helpless, the meetings between the dwarves are always long: "Can you know the reason for the meeting?"

"Before, there was a great engineer at Haimen Gate called Jerek Grimm. He violated the traditions of dwarves and tried to develop a new steam armored ship. Therefore, he was permanently expelled from the Society of Engineers. As a result, Jerek took his family with him. He and the engineers who supported him publicly announced his separation from the Haimen Gate Association. It is said that he planned to go to Ruscia to find a special kind of "Omnet Stone" to support his great invention. A few months later, the engineers discovered his Missing, now they are in a meeting to discuss how to solve this problem." The hammer warrior who led the team is still yesterday's Glenn Silverbeard. He likes Ryan's style and can speak fluent dwarven language, so he is more happy to talk. A few words: "Judging by the intensity of their discussion and the level of beer consumption, you should come back in the afternoon."

"Well, it's a strange group of guys... Uh, I mean the Society of Engineers." Karad said, but he soon realized that he was wrong, so he immediately added: "Normally, new Shouldn’t his invention be encouraged?"

"Yes, I really should be encouraged, but only if Jerek didn't blow up Granny's iron furnace." Glenn Silverbeard muttered: "Jerek's invention exploded two forge furnaces. And an entire dock! He still firmly believes that he is right!"

Ryan could only shook his head helplessly. He quickly noticed the dock next to the Society of Engineers. A huge iron-clad ship was being built inside. The King of Knights soon became interested: "Then can we visit the dock?"

"This...I think I have to ask." Glenn Silverbeard thought for a while, and chose to negotiate with the dwarf engineers standing at the door of the dock. Ryan could see that the dwarf engineers did not agree at first, but then After Glenn-Silverbeard's serious negotiations and King Bernoff's order, the dwarf engineer still reluctantly agreed.

As Ryan and others entered the dock, what they saw was a behemoth made of steel.

"'Grimnier's Thunder", the ship is 80 meters long, 25 meters wide, and has a draught of 12 meters. It is full of hundreds of dwarven engineers, including the boarding team of Iron Smashers, hungry and thirsty like Titans. The huge sea monster’s mouth is looking for the honorary death of the troll butcher’s battle group, and a whole group of warships that can send a reconnaissance plane lighter than air into the air. The automatic reloading, pump-driven Thunder artillery is in the air. Its barrel is engraved with destruction runes, and the hull of nearly a hundred centimeters thick star iron armor is so durable that icebergs can’t break it.” The dwarf engineer proudly introduced to everyone: “Grimnir’s There is a dwarf rotorcraft apron on the deck of the Thunder, where the rotorcraft can take off and land freely. The reconnaissance of enemy ships will be transmitted back to the mothership by the airship through rune signals. Regardless of strong winds and waves, Grimney The Ul's Thunder advances unobstructed on the sea, taking the enemy with the hatred that dwarves must have. Even though it is slow, it cannot escape like death. It is our pride."

"God!" Federmond, who is most experienced in giant ships and naval battles, raised his head and looked up at the giant iron armored ship. An indescribable sense of obscurity and shock filled the heart of the Holy Grail Knights: "How much does this ship cost? money?"

"...If you don't count the raw materials, it's about 50,000 gold marks, and if you count the raw materials, you need about 140,000 gold marks." The dwarf engineer lifted his stomach triumphantly: "Most of the star irons are from Karak- Obtained from Varne's Blackwater Lake, now it is not easy to obtain Star Iron from Blackwater Lake."

"Can we board the ship and visit?" Ryan wanted to go up and have a look.

"Of course not. It is already for the king's face to allow you to enter the dock. If there is nothing more, please leave!" The dwarf engineer was a little unhappy: "Don't take an inch, humans, this is our ship. , Not yours!"

In the dwarf kingdom, the king is not the ruler in the full sense. In fact, the Dwarf Craftsman Association, the Dwarven Engineers Association, and the Dwarven Patriarch Conference all play a role in determining the specific affairs of the dwarf and determining the future policy under certain circumstances, and the power is The biggest are the Dwarf Craftsmen Association and the Dwarf Engineers Association. Ryan can see from Bellegar’s. After taking over the Blackstone Stronghold, Bellegar originally wanted to establish a dwarf gun workshop and a blacksmith factory immediately. Both the Association of Engineers and the Association of Craftsmen decided that the first building was the Dwarf Brewery. In the end, Bellegar couldn't help them, and simply agreed.

By the way, the rapid recovery of the Principality of Gisoleaux after the Heinrich-Kemler invasion was instead relying on the cooperation with the dwarves to build infrastructure to solve the work and production problems of a large number of vagrants. The two sides are now closely related. His ally, Hagen, Duke of Gisoleaux, visited the Blackstone Stronghold three times, and had dinner with Bellegar and his queen Komanik.

"Mr. Engineer, we also want to order an ironclad ship." Lane said to the engineer.

"Then you are going to discuss with the chief engineer, Brooke Gunnarsen, OK, you go out quickly, I want to continue work." The dwarf engineer said impatiently, "Go out, we are going to continue work. Don't disturb our work, human beings, you can negotiate with the Association of Engineers yourself what you want. I am just an engineer in charge of supervising production, not even a big engineer!"

The three holy grail knights were driven out in this way.

"My Majesty, an ironclad ship?" Kalad touched his goatee and smiled: "What a good idea!"

"It's a good idea, if you have money!" Ryan said with a wry smile: "Have you heard? The cost is 140,000 gold marks! This is still the cost price! The cost is too amazing."

"A single Polderro galleon may not be able to match the ironclad ship, but the money is enough for us to build three to five galleons." Federmond thoughtfully: "This is the style of a dwarf, quality versus quantity. NS?"

"Isn't the dwarf always like this?" Calad laughed.

"Very well, there is still some time." Ryan took out the pocket watch made by the dwarf, and it's only ten o'clock in the morning: "Let's walk around. By the way, I also want to talk to you about a question."

"Of course, my majesty!"
